Tess' Favorite Picture Books of 2014

Slides available here: http://bit.ly/TessPicBkSlides

Description
Join Tess Goldwasser (St. Mary's County Library) as she enthusiastically and humorously book-talks her way through her favorite (and a couple of her not-so-favorite) books of 2014. She gives great readers' advisory tips: which books to recommend to which kinds of readers, how to advise parents on titles that may be a bit risque, plus much, much more. She's an absolute joy to listen to!

Learning Objectives:

1) Participants will be able to list at least 10 of the best picture books published for children in 2014.

2) Participants will be able to recommend these books to appropriate readers when answering readers' advisory questions.

3) Participants will be able to identify at least one of these books that they would like to read in 2015.
